Today I have two products to show you. It’s the highly discussed Chanel Notorious Sculpting Veil for Eyes and Cheek and Chanel Rouge Coco in Sari Dore. I bought Sari Dore very long ago (more than a year) but had no guts to wear it since the color looks so bright on me. However today I dared myself to wear this outside

Chanel Notorious has recently hit Singapore shore. There’s something very unique about this product that makes me curious about this product. I have seen swatches of this in many beauty blogs and I think this item is really a collector item.

The SA at Chanel store in Ion Orchard told me that Notorious can be used for both eyes and cheeks. It is the grey color that intrigued me to buy this and see how it looks as a contour on my cheek.Messy Wands has done a great contoured look with Notorious, I think it suits her very well.

The grey color is very sheer but if you are applying this on your cheek, you need to be careful when dabbing your brush. Although it is sheer, the color shows up very well.

I have tried this on my cheek and I must say that at first it feels weird to see grey contour on my cheek. However after few moments, I start to love the color so much. It creates an in depth look on your cheek. My cheekbone does not shows up naturally so I am always thankful if I could find a nice contouring product. Chanel notorious gives me a more in depth look.

Chanel Rouge Coco Sari Dore is a coral/orange lipstick with a satiny finish. A year ago I was really scared to pull an orange on my lips but after trying to pull this shade again, I must say I love the color so much! I think the color looks very vibrant yet doesn’t look too much. I am sure this color works on most skintone.

In the look I created below, I am pairing Chanel Notorious with Sari Dore. I wore Notorious on my cheekbone as a contour. I am still a beginner in contouring so pardon me if it doesn’t look that good. The blush I am wearing is Illamasqua Hussywhich I currently love a lot. If you could notice, I am also wearing Notorious on my eyelids. I applied Notorious on top of my eyeshadow color lightly. The eyeshadow I am using is Chanel Enigma (Asia/Euro baked version, applied wet).

Final Thought:

Chanel Notorious gives a very nice shadow into my cheek. I am happy that my cheekbone shows better with this product. It’s a true collector product; if you like Chanel makeup, you must buy this one! Sari Dore is a great orange lipstick that brighten up the whole look. This is worth a look if you’re looking for coral lipstick with satiny finish.

I keep going back and forth with Notorious. I am a contouring noob so I’m not sure I should be using something as dark and pigmented as Notorious for my first-time with contouring. BUT, I like that it can be used for eyes as well and I do think that done right, it is extremely natural-looking. I just don’t know if I would be able to achieve that effect or if contouring is even completely necessary….

Eee Notorious! A blogger was nice enough to sell me her backup, so it’s now on its way to Belgium (I was told it’d be available at the Chanel boutique but it’s not)! Glad to see you like it! I hope it’ll work for me too!
